No no. This was in 2004 or 2005. SSR GT2s in 17x8.5 +35 offset with 245/45-17s. Wheels are 16-17 lbs. each.

That makes sense now. LOL. They still look nice in 2022. Probably worth 2x as much as paid

Thanks man!

I'm actually on the stock front bar - with the Ciro Design adjustable brackets (running in the softest - I believe softer than stock position).

I was curious as the left front appears to be lifting which, been told, is a result of running a higher rate FSB. I guess thats why most of us run the stock FSB on the track!

As noted, a great pic for sure!

I see where you're going with that!

Yeah - it looks that way but IMO it's sort of deceiving since I'm running around -4.5 camber up front. If I was running less - it wouldn't look as dramatic up front! The tire is definitely on the ground - at least part of it is, ha!
